Los Pequenos Gigantes recounts the true story of the 1957 Little League World Series, the first featuring a team from outside of the United States and Canada. Despite their limited resources, the team from Monterrey, Mexico, won the series with the only perfect game in Little League championship history. Some of the players from the Monterrey team, including pitcher Ángel Macías, play themselves in the film. This rare screening in 35mm is from a print generously donated to the Academy by Jean Rouverol, the widow of writer-director Hugo Butler.

After the screening of LOS PEQUEÑOS GIGANTES, children ages 9-15 can participate in a storyboard workshop led by storyboard artist Myke Bakich (The Book of Life, The Angry Birds Movie and Despicable Me 3). This community collaboration will encourage children to illustrate their own storyboards based around heroes in their own lives—either hometown heroes or broader cultural figures. Children will also have the opportunity to meet Angel Macias and Pepe Maiz, former baseball players from the Mexican little league team that inspired the film LOS PEQUEÑOS GIGANTES.
